IMPLEMENTING CONTENT SHARING AND SESSION HAND-OFF BETWEEN WEB BROWSERS - An Integration of SIP Stack into Mozilla Firefox Web Browser

This study aimed to create a consolidated web browser interface usingmultiple browser libraries for testing web designs. Specifically, this research effort intended to develop an application capable to test web designs on the top four (4) most commonly used web browsers namely, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari. Furthermore, this research undertaking also meant to develop an application with syntax coloring and line numbers to help web developers determine syntax pairing and differences between browser outputs, and which would allow the users to directly edit specified CSS and HTML code through the text editor. Through experimental development approach and consultation with seventeen respondents who were selected through random sampling, the researchers were able to integrate the cited web browsers into one application enabling the web developers to avoid downloading and installing web browser applications one–by–one, and giving them the opportunity to test their web designs either online or offline. Findings revealed that the consolidated web browser interface using multiple browser libraries could help test web designs. The resulting program consolidated into one application the Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari, through the use of GeckoFX, WebKit, and XULRunner, making the browsers stand alone tools. In addition, RegEx and Line Numbers were also used for the syntax coloring and line numbering. Further, the consolidated web browser interface using multiple browser libraries for testing web designs could lessen the problem in following a certain standard code of a browser, especially HTML and CSS codes.

Almost All

Purpose – This paper aims to report on research that tests the effectiveness of anti-phishing tools in detecting phishing attacks by conducting some real-time experiments using freshly hosted phishing sites. Almost all modern-day Web browsers and antivirus programs provide security indicators to mitigate the widespread problem of phishing on the Internet. Design/methodology/approach – The current work examines and evaluates the effectiveness of five popular Web browsers, two third-party phishing toolbar add-ons and seven popular antivirus programs in terms of their capability to detect locally hosted spoofed websites. The same tools have also been tested against fresh phishing sites hosted on Internet. Findings – The experiments yielded alarming results. Although the success rate against live phishing sites was encouraging, only 3 of the 14 tools tested could successfully detect a single spoofed website hosted locally. Originality/value – This work proposes the inclusion of domain name system server authentication and verification of name servers for a visiting website for all future anti-phishing toolbars. It also proposes that a Web browser should maintain a white list of websites that engage in online monetary transactions so that when a user requires to access any of these, the default protocol should always be HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure), without which a Web browser should prevent the page from loading.

The Web

Web browsers may delete some files but it doesn’t delete everything. The purpose of private browsing is for users to browse private mode just as a standard browsing session would, but without storing any data such as log-in credentials or browsing history upon exit. A secure framework to secure the web browser artefacts is proposed to fulfil the requirements. In order to compare and contrast the different methods of artefacts encryption, a hybrid method was introduced; Base64 + AES on the prototype. The test systems were created by utilising virtual machines. The prototype was developed using C# language in Microsoft Visual Studio application that runs on Windows. To provide countermeasures, this research proposes an implementation of a third-party privacy application, called PRINDOW, to improve security in hiding a user's browsing activity. Every browsing session is recorded and scanned using the prototype. This method allows only the base requirements to be installed on the virtual machine for each file with the cryptographic method. This framework could theoretically enhance current practises by making slight changes to the web browser's application structure.

Fine Tune

Abstract. Current map viewers that run on modern web browsers are mainly requesting images generated on the fly in the server side and transferred in pictorial format that they can display (PNG or JPEG). In OGC WMS standard this is done for the whole map view while in WMTS is done per tiles. The user cannot fine tune personalized visualization or data analysis in the client side. Remote sensing data is structured in bands that are visualize individually (manually adjusting contrast), create RGB combinations or present spectral indices. When these operations are not available in map browsers professional are forced to download hundreds of gigabytes of remote sensing imagery to take a good look at the data before deciding if it fits for a purpose. A possible solution is to create a web service that is able to perform these operations on the server side (https://www.sentinel-hub.com). This paper proposes that the server should communicate the data values to the client in a format that the client can directly process using two new additions in HTML5: canvas edition and array buffers. In the client side, the user can interact with a JavaScript interface changing symbolizations and doing some analytical operations without having to request any data again to the server. As a bonus, the user is able to perform queries to the data in a more dynamic way, applying spatial filters, creating histograms, generating animations of a time series or performing complex calculations among bands of the different loaded datasets.

The Web

Real-time web applications such as a virtual world require considerable computing resources. However, as the number of servers increases, so does the maintenance and financial cost. To share tasks among web browsers, the browsers must share data. Therefore, a network must be constructed among the web browsers. In this paper, we propose the construction of a web browser network based on the Barabasi–Albert model (BA model). We focus on a web-based multiplayer online game that requires higher frequent communication and significant computing resources. We attempt to optimize computing resource utilization for web browsers. We improve upon the method in our previous study, which constructed a network for a web-based virtual world, using only location information. When a new user logged into a world, the web browser connected to two other browsers whose users had a location close to that of the user. The experimental results of that method showed 50% data coverage, which was insufficient to display the game screen because the web browser displays the characters on the virtual world. In this study, we attempt to use the BA model to construct more efficient networks than those in the previous study to increase data coverage. Our new method uses the number of connections of the web browser and location information to calculate the probability of web browser selection. The experimental results show that the data coverage exceeds 90%, indicating significant improvement over the previous method.

The cloud is becoming an atmosphere to store huge data and deploy massive applications. Using virtualization technologies, it is economical and feasible to provide testbeds in the cloud. The convergence of Next Generation (NG) networks and Internet-based applications may result in the deployment of future rich Internet applications and services in the cloud. This chapter shows the migration of mobility-enabled services to the cloud. It presents a SIP-based hybrid architecture for Web session mobility that offers content sharing and session handoff between Web browsers. The implemented system has recently evolved to a framework for developing different kinds of converged services over the Internet, which are similar to services offered by Google Wave and existing telephony Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). In addition, the work in this chapter is compared with those similar technologies. Lastly, the authors show efforts to migrate the SIP/HTTP application server to the cloud, which was necessitated by the need to include more functionalities (i.e., QoS and rich media support) as well as to provide large-scale deployment in a multi-domain scenario.
